Beschreibung
First impression of the first US edition, published by W. W. Norton & Company, New York. Dustwrapper illustrated by Stanley Clough. ***Near fine in black and cream cloth-covered boards with red and black titles to the spine. Head and tail of spine slightly creased. Corners sharp. No bumps. The boards are clean and unmarked. Spine tight. Fore-edge of page block untrimmed (as is common with American editions). Internally nice and clean, with just a neat gift inscription to the front free endpaper'To Anna with love Helen August 1961.' No creasing. No tears. ***In a very good illustrated dustwrapper, that has been corner price-clipped. The head and tail of the spine are just slightly creased and scuffed. The spine of the dustwrapper is not browned at all. No tears or chips. ***220mm x 150mm. 249 pages. *** 'This is a perceptive, deeply questioning novel of a New England college, its students and its faculty. It is a novel about women and the unique relationship between teacher and student - a relationship in which we are all involved. A major writer, long intimate with the world of scholars and learning, May Sarton in this new book brings her remarkable talent to bear on a problem as old as teaching and as new as the newest student. "The Small Room" is an absorbing novel - the work of an artist who weighs the price of excellence.' [Quote taken from the front and rear flaps of the dustwrapper] ***First impression of the true first edition of May Sarton's eighth novel - a 'perceptive, deeply questioning novel of a New England college.' Quite uncommon to find in the UK. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 7543
